felted folds square

“felted folds square” are wall mounted objects that work as a group as well as individual pieces. Based on the same size of square felt, made of human hair, these objects are soaked in porcelain and find their shape by laying over a construction of strings. Using the gravitational pull as aid in the forming process, creates a wide variety of possible shapes.

The repeat of this process shows what can be controlled and planned and where the material and technique take over.
